This is a social media site. But I get that you are saying that you haven't been on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram. I was on Facebook for a year 10 years ago.

I kind of find it mind blowing how haphazard the transformation from Twitter to X has been. It really points out how nobody is saying "no" to Musk, or how he isn't listening to anyone else. The CEO job is such a token job in Twitter/X. But CEOs are super important and need to be paid 400 times the average worker right?

As a retired software programmer, after hearing about the "50 most salient lines of code" BS, and the "hard core sleeping on the floor" BS, and then hearing about Musk committing brand hara-kiri, it just makes me want to riot.
